RISC Processors

(Reduced Instruction Set Computing)

RISC archetecture is newer than the CISC architecture.  After making CISC chips for some time, we found out that some CISC design guide lines were not such a good idea.  With these in mind, the RISC chip was created.  Also memory was cheaper and that had an significant impact on the chip's design.  In this next section you will find out about RISC concepts, and the differences between RISC and CISC chips.  RISC concepts consists of:
